With the soldiers' explanation, Su Jianyue was able to roughly understand the terrain of the lower reaches of the Yunjiang River.
The location of the largest breach is Pingpo Town in Hsinchu County. The town has a large population and the water is so fierce that if it floods through, most of the people will suffer.
Su Jianyue picked up the red brush and marked the location of the breach.
"Where is this place?"
Su Jianyue asked.
The soldier was originally a subordinate of the county magistrate and a native of Zhu County. He knew the area very well.
He looked in the direction Su Jianyue was looking.
"This is a gap in the Yunqi Mountain range. The Yunjiang River flows westward around Yunqi Mountain."
Su Jianyue looked at the terrain map and seemed to have found a breakthrough.
This place happens to be the angle between two mountains. The terrain is higher than the horizontal plane, but not that high.
...
...
“Is there anyone living on this mountain?”
The soldier thought for a moment and said, "There are mostly wolves, tigers and leopards on Yunqi Mountain, so it's probably uninhabited. However, I'm not sure. If the young lady wants to know, I can report to the county governor and go investigate immediately."
Su Jianyue made another comment there.
"Go and invite the county governor as soon as possible, and invite a few officials or common people who are familiar with this area to come. I want to ask you some questions."
"yes."
Su Jianyue was wearing a mask and was fully armed. He didn't even see Su Jianyue's appearance clearly, but subconsciously obeyed her orders.
It was not until he left the tent that he realized his strange behavior.
However, since that girl is someone close to His Majesty, she must have some abilities, right?
The county lieutenant was issuing orders, braving the heavy rain, summoning all the people. The gongs were beating loudly in the rain. He dragged his limping feet, taking one deep step and one shallow step, and shouted as he walked: "All men who can still move, quickly follow me to build the dike. In order to protect our homeland, even His Majesty has disregarded his own safety and went to rescue people. We are healthy, how can we not contribute to our own homeland?"
Soon, more and more people joined him.
There are special people distributing the raincoats and rain boots that Your Majesty got from the goddess.
Although they didn’t have enough rain gear, they still had straw raincoats, straw sandals, and a passion for blood.
They are united in purpose and can always overcome difficulties together.
People at this time are the most united.
In this era when imperial power is paramount, the emperor above their heads has personally participated in the rescue, fearless of danger and escaping near death. What reason do they have to sit and wait for death?
"Folks, we have to join in."
The prestigious gentry donated all their raincoats and called on more people.
At this moment, all classes seemed to have disappeared.
Everyone is working hard for the same goal.
The soldier finally found the county magistrate who organized the team in the chaotic crowd.
The county lieutenant organized all the young and strong men as quickly as possible.
They didn't waste too much time here and followed the team on the journey in the rain.
Even in the middle of the night, facing the unknown ahead, they walked closely side by side and could feel the blazing masculine flames in each other's hearts.
The county magistrate originally wanted to follow the team.
Your Majesty is visiting Zhu County in person. As the county magistrate, he should be by your side, assisting you.
However, His Majesty left the follow-up matters such as setting up camp and organizing the rescue of the wounded to him.
The county magistrate had a heavy responsibility and a long way to go, so he couldn't leave for the time being.
Now that such a big thing has happened, he should settle the rear and go to His Majesty without a moment's rest and advance and retreat together with all the people.
But he was tripped by a soldier again.
"What are you doing? Don't stop me from going to rescue the disaster."
The rain was so loud that the soldier could not hear what he said.
He simply put his mouth close to the county magistrate's ear and shouted, "Sir, there is a girl looking for you."
"girl?"
The county magistrate waved his hand impatiently, "What time is it? Even if the immortals come to look for me, I won't see them."
He threw back his sleeves and said, "No, no."
The soldier was extremely anxious.
"That girl is someone close to His Majesty."
"nonsense."
The county magistrate didn't believe it.
"Your Majesty came here alone, when did you bring the girl with you?"
The soldier was also a little frightened. Seeing that he couldn't call out to the county magistrate and it was difficult to speak in the heavy rain, he simply bent down, picked up the county magistrate by the waist, carried him on his shoulders and took him away.
"Oh my, you are so outrageous. What are you doing? What are you doing?"
Ignoring the county magistrate's screams and struggles, the soldier carried the man and rushed into Xiao Yuqi's tent in one breath.
Su Jianyue had just put down the red seal in her hand and when she looked up, she saw the soldier coming in carrying... a person.
The man almost couldn't catch his breath.
"Are you a tiger? I have something important to do, aren't you causing trouble for me?"
"It's not me, it's this girl who wants to see you."
The soldier explained palely.
The county magistrate frowned, turned around, and saw the girl in the raincoat.
Her face was covered and her features could not be seen clearly, but looking at her beautiful eyes, one could imagine her stunning beauty under the mask.
"My lady, I don't care whether you are His Majesty's bedmate or not. You have caused trouble at such a critical moment and delayed my work. Please don't blame me for being rude to you."
His eyes were full of contempt for women.
Su Jianyue also frowned.
"Is this the county governor?"
The soldier knelt down and said, "No, this is Lord Fang, the Magistrate of Zhu County. The County Magistrate went out with Your Majesty to fight the disaster during the day and has not returned."
Su Jianyue understood.
"That is to say, here and now, the county magistrate has the final say, right?"
Lord Fang flicked his sleeves and snorted, "You women, relying on the grace of His Majesty, dare to show off in front of outsiders. I have to go and do something serious now. If you know your place, you shouldn't stop me."
Su Jianyue: “???”
"No wonder you can only be a county magistrate at your age."
Su Jianyue closed the parchment scroll.
"In that case, please go and do your work, sir. I will take care of the rest myself."
Su Jianyue ignored Mr. Fang and asked the soldier, "What's your name?"
"My name is Zhao Degang."
"Okay, then I'll call you Xiao Zhao. Can you gather some of your brothers and follow me?"
Su Jianyue stood opposite him, thin and petite, but full of imposing aura.
Zhao Degang subconsciously tensed his back.
"What do you want to do, girl?"
Su Jianyue put the parchment scroll into the bag she was carrying.
"Go, blow up the mountain!"
These two simple and straightforward words made Zhao Degang tremble with fear.
A strong excitement rushed from the body to the scalp.
He had a strong premonition.
The time has come to make achievements!
No wonder Mr. Tao said that he would receive help from a noble person at the beginning of this year and soar to success.
Isn't the noble person destined for him here?
"Yes, I obey your command."
Lord Fang looked in disbelief at the girl in front of him whose face he couldn't see clearly.
"Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous!"
